MARCH 13, 2012 RONDA'S CORNER HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!! We had a great response to the Book Repair and Preservation workshop. There are currently 28 signed up. I will take 2 more participants. Registration will be closed after that. I had to submit a count to the presenter so she could ship the supplies needed. Because of the numbers, I am moving the training to the Olean BOCES Center.
Recent interlibrary loan visits include Arizona, Alaska, and Roswell, NM. I love to see where the books go.
